Lol you're fine, it does look like it should have one. Between the exhaust blowing dirt around and the poor suction I see why they ditched the clean air design for 45 years until Hoover tried again!

That is the exhaust port, the bag is inside! Kind of a bad exhaust placement, blows the dirt away on that side.. lol

Just needs a cord and a good set of front wheels now. I've located them on eBay, now to actually buy them and finish up this project. lol

Thats odd. Sounds like maybe a switch issue. No a convertible motor isn't even close you would need a parts machine for sure. Would be beneficial to check the carbon brushes and commutator just in case

Going by the pics it would be trace amounts if anything. Nothing dangerous really unless you lick the likely lead painted handle lol

Thank you so much. Mostly completed another today, this Hoover Lark 12. Still needs a good badge and a piece of trim for under the handle bail. The tag underneath said last serviced, October 1968

He has most of them listed in his profile.

Plastic belt lifter with viewing window, and later models had the cord hooks on the other side. Very early ones had a flawed thin handle grip that was often replaced. And of course the red trim and new bag top :)

Thank you so much!! It has certainly been tiring, and has ate through at least one buffing wheel! Husky - The Fedelco is basically just a Bee Vac with a stationary back wheel and 2 big front ones. It probably performs the same as your Bee. Vacmadman - GE model AV11. Sorry for the sideways...

More pics to come!

Thanks to parts from this haul I was able to get my GE made JL Hudson back from the dead.

Eureka model 3. This one is taken as far as I can at the present moment. I need to hire a fabrication for a model tag and bag, as well as make a bag connector and 3d print a handle joint.

Sanitaire branded Executive, this one was really bad. The paint peeled off in big swatches.
